Throwback Thursday: Our very own "Gateway to @FairmountPark"—the Perelman Building! Here you see it in its infancy (originally constructed for the Fidelity Mutual Life Insurance Company). What's your current favorite exhibition or work of art at the Perelman Building?

With Father's Day around the corner, it is only appropriate to examine how we view family.

Tomorrow FAMILY PORTRAIT opens at the Perelman Building showcasing the many ways photographers picture family, from amateurs who document their own households, to progressive reformers who make views of domestic life to encourage social change, to artists who explore the deeply personal and often private nature of familial relationships. 

We encourage you to get in on the fun by instagramming a picture of your family and tagging it #pmafamily. Search #pmafamily to see them all, or check out our favorites on Facebook.
